Property Under Construction-$88.00 Bill to Dry Clean Comforters-Not As Advertised

1/5

Stayed Aug 2018

Buyer beware! I was not informed of any construction on the property until 1 1/2 days prior to check in and it was too late to find another property. It is not in any rental agreement and not advertised but you will have to pay $88.00 to have the comforters dry cleaned if you are the unlucky third renter. (She makes every 3 renters pay for her dry-cleaning)!! If you forget to pack the sheets from the bed to the laundry room you will be charged $88.00, even if you are not the unlucky 3rd renter- Even though this is not stated anywhere in the description or rental agreement. Complete False Advertising!!

Owner's Response:

This renter, was charged an $88 cleaning fee. We provide clean sheets and blankets on each of our beds. On our check in instructions and also our welcome texts, we give instructions for the quilts on each bed to be placed into provided storage containers as it takes our cleaning teams 2 additional hours to take them to the laundry mat to clean them if they are used during the rental. It is disclosed that if they are used, then the two hours of additional cleaning plus laundry fees will be charged. Those charges are spelled out in advance.

In this case, the primary renter was not even present during the rental. He rented it for other individuals who stayed in the home. This was never disclosed to me. The individuals who were in the rental were very happy during their stay, and I was under the impression the entire time they were there that I was in fact, dealing with the renter himself. As an owner, I feel very strongly that this renter was very deceitful and has been since before the rental and that has continued right up to his review of this property. After the rental, when the cleaning fees were charged I sent a text to who I assumed was the renter explaining the fees. I received a text back stating that they thoroughly enjoyed the home and the fee was “no problem”.

I was shocked when I received an email from the renter accusing me of charging him $88 for not stripping the sheets off the bed.(not true) He asked me to call him at a different number, and when I did that is when he informed me he had not even been at the rental at all. He was belligerent and nasty on the phone and threatened to leave a negative review. He then called VRBO and complained I was withholding his security deposit without cause. When that did not work he left this retaliatory review.

I have pictures of the rental the way it was left on checkout. Frankly, we could have charged a larger cleaning fee and probably should have. The house was not under construction. I had told the renters that during their stay they may see a maintenance crew come up and go underneath the house to replace a small amount of insulation around the air handler, but they would not need access to the house. Two exterior windows had the paint stripped off of them in preparation for repainting, but that would not be done while the house was rented. Both of these things fall under routine maintenance, and did not affect nor inconvenience the renters. They hardly qualify as “construction".

Great House

We stayed at Robin’s place for 4 nights. The house is perfect! My family from Ireland and Australia were very impressed with the cleanliness, the amenities and the comfortable beds! The neighborhood is very quiet,yet within driving distance to downtown New Bern. I would highly recommend Robin’s place!

Our daughter just got married so we came to town for this. Was hoping to fill this house with other family, but that didn't happen. The owner ALWAYS quickly responded to my questions. Also, the house had everything we needed! I would definitely come back!
